Draw her at her most beautiful with your own hands! Azur Lane Bride Illustration Contest "Marriage" is underway!

A quick review of the smash hit game Azur Lane

Azur Lane is a Chinese shooting RPG that allows you to command girls that are anthropomorphic representations of warships.

The story begins with the formation of a military union named Azur Lane by several nations in order to defeat Sirens, enemies that appear at the sea. Although the union succeeded in defeating their enemy, different ideologies lead to a military conflict between the opposing faction Red Axis and Azur Lane. The plot becomes more complicated when Sirens, the enemies that aren't supposed to still exist, begin their movements underwater once again.

There are many factors that make Azur Lane popular in Japan as well, for instance, the girls have unique personalities, the way they move around in the sea is entertaining to watch, and many other characters with realistic personalities also appear in this game.

It's a feature that allows you to get married to your favorite character. Once you get "Married" to her, her affection toward you will reach a new level and certain characters will even get to wear special costumes. Also, once in 30 days, you will get to change the name of your wife. The "Marriage" system is undoubtedly a system for those who want to see what it's like when their favorite girl's love toward them maxes out(!)
